Georgia football: G-Day is a football revival for the Bulldog Nation

The 2018 Georgia football spring scrimmage, known as the G-Day Game, is this Saturday evening at 4:00 p.m.

The G-Day Game is a celebration of Georgia football. We as fans don’t go to cheer the Bulldogs to victory. There’s no stress or opposing fans to deal with. Just 92,000-plus Georgia Bulldog fans to watch two Georgia football teams playing against each other.

G-Day is the beginning of the careers for several of the prospects we rejoiced for when they signed back in December or February. It’s where we see the signees of past classes began taking the next steps to stardom. And it’s the beginning of the end of the careers of the rising seniors.

G-Day is like a tent revival. We don’t need gimmicks, as welcomed as they may be. No, we just want to celebrate our team. Celebrate what they have accomplished and what they will accomplish in the future. As well as celebrate the recent recruiting classes while showing prospects what to expect in Athens.

During the game, we cheer from start to finish. What is there to boo? A Jake Fromm completion to Riley Ridley will merit applause from the crowd just as much as an interception by Richard LeCounte III. A big run by Elijah Holyfield will be cheered just as much as a tackle for a loss by Nate McBride.

The weather will be nice, they’re serving food and selling merchandise. There’s a band playing music, all the best Georgia tunes. But Georgia football is the draw. It’s why we are gathering. It’s what we are celebrating.
